Moon Birdy

In Colombia live the Embera, an indigenous people that still upholds the traditions and knowledge of their ancestors. They know of Ankastor, a big white bird that once brought two women to the heavenly realms from where they smuggled two maize (corn) kernels with them on their way back to earth. This is how the Embera came to make corn one of their primary food staples.

    This is also a beautiful illustration and a unique style. A great story too, I could sense it was an indigenous style bird even before I read your description. Beautiful!

    Thank you! And yes my ancestors have always spoken through me even if I wasn’t aware of it until a couple of years back.
